Defining doctoring

The General Medical Council wants to find out what is good medical practice today, and what makes a good doctor. They ran debate and discussion throughout 2011, and now they're having a public consultation.

They want to hear from everyone - doctors, organisations, and members of the public.There are separate online questionnaires for each, and you can type in comments as well as ticking boxes.

One subject they ask about is whether doctors should be encouraging patients to return to (or take up) work - interesting in view of the current welfare reforms!

All the links you'll need are here. The consultation closes on 10th February.

Please do take part. This is an important subject, that will affect us all.
